FindernRam Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Given our recent form and his experience of midlands clubs and cultures I am a little surprised GR is never in the top betting for West brom or indeed any of the prem jobs available. Maybe he wants to go to Wales and take over when Clement gets the inevitable boot soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After 18 games here Derby had 39 points, so 20% more than GR. He seemingly had an easier time than GR with squad he inherited (i.e when he came in he had yet to sign the dross that he did actually sign and had more £ to spend). Football was pretty dreadful as I recall. Failed to instill much in the way of 'mental steel' which GR seems to have done. Clement did well to save Swansea last season but they have regressed under his stewardship this year. Not sure any p-league chairmen would look at Clement's transition from Derby to premier league and think that GR would be a worthy appointment on basis of what Clement has achieved. Oh and Rowett's interviews are much better. I got utterly fed up of Clement's post match statement of 'we have got to find a way of playing through packed defences at home'.

RadioactiveWaste Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Not done enough yet and is in a job with a realistic chance of progression. A valiant play off loss with the team looking very solid until the end of the season might just start him being on the radar, but his good jobs at Burton and Brum aren't enough.

Wow, I’d kinda forgot how good of a start we had under PC. Completely agree though, th football was dire even though we dominated most games and played god knows how many passes, I remember being utterly bored, Rowett-ball is far more enjoyable to watch IMO. That last line has basically been the tag line of most Derby managers in the last 4/5 years, I guess it’s a testimont in a way that teams feel they have to do that at PP, there was a time where teams would stroll up, play football and take all the points.

I am certain I am right with the 39 points. It was followed up with 39 in the other 28 games. As a point of comparison it was 35 points in the first full season on Mac 1. Like you I was utterly bored at most games under Clement as he appeared to take the possession based build from the back ethos to its finite conclusion whereby the ball was just endlessly played around the back four and the holding mf. Not been a massive fan of the football under Rowett but he does seem to have found a way round a visiting packed defence at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't enjoy watching our football tbh and against qpr last Tuesday was the most boring first half I've seen in a while. Saying that, I don't care as long as we win. As long as we get results i'll take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer to watch Mac1 football rather than Rowett-ball but the point I was making is that I find it more enjoyable than clement-ball. Under clement we would hardly ever take a risk when in possession, it was the safe option every time. A high percentage of our goals were scored by an individual at piece of brilliance, score a couple goals then pass it round the defence for the rest of the game. I don’t have the stats, but I’d like to see how many clear cut chances per game at the minute, we seem to create 4/5 golden opportunities, not just half chances but clear goal scoring opportunities. It’s got to be a high percentage in comparison to the amount of possession we have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats partly why Mel made his move, that and the fact Norwich were also on the prowl for him at around the time we dismissed McClaren. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
